I feel this, but my other love is gentoo...if only I could get portage to just stop finding more package masks or multiple instances of the same package slot..it's always something that makes me do another upgrade in an attempt to troubleshoot and it's usually because I get so caught up in just fixing silly mistakes that I forget to actually get to the eselect news that would have avoided the last stack of 6 compounding issues in the first place.
But I love how fun it is and I'm never leaving no matter what other nix-like cults pop up

The feeling of "conflating reality and whatever computer topic you're currently engrossed in" is too real.
Nailing this regex will save me hours.
Cramming for CCNA while also wedding planning and on codeine for a bad cough, many years ago...I remember the question of how many subnets to fit in each table crossing my head. Shit like that.
(I mention the codeine because my body, as it turns out, has nearly no tolerance for opiates).
